Can the Sasang Constitutional Type Trait Act as an Independent Risk Factor for Dyslipidemia?

Abstract

Objectives: This study was designed to investigate the correlation between Sasang constitution and dyslipidemia and the possibility that Sasang constitution can be a risk factor of dyslipidemia. Methods: This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study based on chart review. Seventeen thousand sixty-nine charts which were collected from

Relationship between Low Vegetable Consumption, Increased High-Sensitive C-Reactive Protein Level, and Cardiometabolic Risk in Korean Adults with Tae-Eumin: A Cross-Sectional Study

“…In line with this, we found a significant protective effect of high vegetable consumption on cardiometabolic risk factors in the high-risk and low-risk hs-CRP level TE groups. Several large population-based studies have reported that there is an inherent metabolic high-risk associated with the components of MetS in TE [9][10][11][12][13][14]. In particular, high BMI and obesity-related metabolic risks, such as central obesity (WC and WHR) [9,11,50], which are interrelated to the development of insulin resistance [14] and T2DM [15], were found in the TE group.…”

“…Constitution type has displayed accuracy in recent studies in predicting metabolic syndrome (MetS) [9] and CVD [10]. Particularly, the Tae-eumin (TE) type showed a positive association with the components of MetS, including obesity-related factors [11][12][13][14] and T2DM [15]. Recent cohort studies have reported lower levels of adiponectin and ghrelin hormone, which act as a regulator of food intake [16], and proatherogenesis [17] in TE.…”
